Todays Modern Lawyer

Hidden behind one of a billion screens 
Sits todays modern lawyer
Lines of code query through the possibilities 
Finding the best-fit affair

His personal attachment to the case 
Minimal, yet filled with burning passion 
His native tongue
Aggressive vulgarity
The overwhelming platform of communal ignorance 
Reinforces his arrogance

Todays modern lawyer radiates omnipotence through words
His persuasion isn’t in a courtroom 
Nor is it on a piece of paper

It echoes through the minds of the mindless
The minds of todays modern lawyer
